Nick Diaz doesn’t sniff goat in MMA. You can’t lose as much as he has and be the goat. Does the goat lose to Joe Riggs? That would be like Fedor losing a three round decision to Tre Telligman.
Kind of like every time you call Matt Stafford the Goat quarterback
Rewatch the fight delusional goofball, both were landing good shots, maybe later KJ Noons was swinging only haymakers but Nick was very aware of it, and nasty cut happened, Nick wouldn’t have finished him, he was scared to engage enough to land anything serious
Nah. Strickland is a safe point fighter at heart. He even made sure his last opponent, who was dead tired, wasn’t fighting back at all before he would risk going in for the finish. Nothing wrong with that but definitely not Diaz-esque.
I love Nick, but prime versus prime, Strickland vs Diaz would be very competitive. I think Diaz is a little more diverse but Sean is better defensively, I personally think Diaz takes a decision, but by no means would Nick mop the floor with Strickland.
